Undead Lord

An undead lord is a cleric
focused on using necromancy to control undead. Her flock is the walking
dead and her choir the keening spirits of the damned. This unliving
congregation is the manifestation of her unceasing love affair with
death.

A cleric cannot take the undead lord archetype
unless her deity’s portfolio includes the Death domain or a similar
domain that promotes undeath.

Death Magic

Corpse Companion (Su)

With a ritual requiring 8 hours, an undead lord can animate a single skeleton or zombie whose Hit Dice
do not exceed her cleric level. This corpse companion automatically
follows her commands and does not need to be controlled by her. She
cannot have more than one corpse companion at a time. It does not count
against the number of Hit Dice of undead controlled by other methods. She can use this ability to create a variant skeleton such as a bloody or burning skeleton, but its Hit Dice cannot exceed half her cleric level. She can dismiss her companion as a standard action, which destroys it.

Unlife Healer (Su)

At 8th level, the undead lord’s spells, spell-like abilities, and supernatural abilities used to heal undead
heal an extra 50% damage. At 16th level, these effects automatically
heal the maximum possible damage for the effect + the extra 50%. This
does not stack with abilities or feats such as Empower Spell or Maximize Spell.
